    What is the operable door width on the 46.5” model?

    Answer This Question

    Hello, thank you for your inquiry. Before ordering your GW shower enclosure it is essential your shower is tiled as your measurements will change once tiling and grout are in place Glass Warehouse offers a unique modular system making our showers as close to purchasing a custom-made shower, without the higher cost. The sizes of the door and stationary panels will vary depending on what stock is available at the time of receiving your order as we custom select the panels due to stock availability. Typically for the 46.5" size model we would send a door (walk through) between 25" - 26" with a fixed or hinged panel (stationary) to suit between 21" to 20". The remaining 1/2" is allocated to hardware. Our door sizes range from 24" to 30", in 1/4” increments. If you require a specific door panel size, before placing your order, please contact our team directly at: inquiries@glasswarehouse.us where they will provide instructions on how to do so. With any further questions you may have, please contact us directly as we often do not receive these questions for several days after they are posted online. Thank you!

      With this fit in a 47” opening?

      Answer This Question

      Hello and thank you for your inquiry. Please note that before ordering your GW shower enclosure it is essential your shower is tiled as your measurements will change once tiling and grout are in place. GW offers a unique modular system that is as close to a custom fit shower as possible without the high prices, this is why it is essential to only order once tiling is complete. If your enclosure is tiled and your minimum tile to tile width measurement is 47” then you would order the 47" model. The rule when ordering a GW dual panel system is to not order anything above your minimum tile to tile width opening. If you order anything above your minimum width measurement the shower will not fit. Please feel free to contact our team directly at: inquiries@glasswarehouse.us prior to ordering and our team will be happy to provide you with the correct model to order to suit your exact measurements. Thank you.

        Will the door center itself if installed with a swing in and out capability? Do the hinges take care of this? A few doors I have looked at have a magnetic strip at the joint to maintain alignment in the closed position!

              We had this glass door installed about 6 months ago, we are now noticing that the bottom seals are peeling away, is this to be expected? Is there something we can do to fix it so we don’t end up with leaks out of the shower?

                My minimum measurement is 45 5/8” (bottom measurement). Top and middle measurements are the same at 46”. Based on the description it sounds like I should order the 45 1/2” model. Is this correct? Will there be a gap because it’s not precise?

                  4.5 (Almost a full 5) Exactly what we had hoped for our newly remodeled shower. Arrived on time and our contractor picked it up with no problems. Yet, even with repeated careful measuring, (as per initial instruction, our door was about a quarter - three-eighths of an inch off. Fortunately this was easily filled with a clear vinyl strip. Otherwise...contractor had only a few issues installing. Looks beautiful.

                  These are beautiful shower doors. They are very heavy so make sure you have two people to transport them. I have a lot of stairs and a skinny hallway so it was good to have two people to maneuver. Home Depot customer service was perfect. All boxes were included in order- hardware, glass, etc. I picked the doors up at the store and it was very easy. Unfortunately I didn't get to install the doors because I made an error in measuring which was entirely my mistake. Make sure you measure at 3 different locations on your enclosure to get the right tile too tile measurement. I also called Glass Warehouse customer service with questions and they were very responsive and helpful. Overall very pleased. I'll be even more excited when they are installed. Two thumbs up!

                  A bit flimsy. Needs some additional wall brackets to keep it sturdy. Feel like if you pushed the door too fast it would all fall out. I know it wouldn't but just doesn't feel strong.

                  Gorgeous Door
                  We measured and ordered a door that was just a little bit too wide, but we were able to exchange quickly and get the right size ordered. We chose order pickup at Home Depot because it is winter and we live in the Midwest. We wanted our bathroom remodel to be elevated and sleek, there were so few shower door options on the market that could help us achieve this. We couldn’t be happier with the look. Installation was a 2-person job and took around 90 minutes with the measuring and drilling for the hinges. It looks incredible and we are so pleased.

                      The door and hardware kit was of great quality, and installation was straight forward as long as you carefully follow the instruction steps. Finished result was fantastic, and we love the finished shower door. I did have to make one small change, which didn't require any modification to the kit. Our shower base front lip isn't flat, it slightly tapers to the rear, and is slightly higher in the corners than the middle, so I couldn't install the provided door sweep without it binding as the door was opened. Instead, I used a piece of clear "T" trim to make a drip lip on the bottom inside of the door panel. It diverts any water running down the door, and keeps splashes inside without binding when the door is opened. Oh, and the door kit was very well packed and despite a couple tears to the outer layer, no damage reached the components themselves.

                      Perfect! It's nearly identical to what "custom shower door" installers use at about 1/3 the cost. Glass Warehouse customer service is great.

                      Hello,

                      We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with the sweep on your shower door. This item is made of plastic and with regular exposure to water and chemicals found in tap water will of course deteriorate and need to be replaced. This will be the case with all other shower companies also. With that being said, the sweeps included with your order are under warranty for 12 months. Please reach out to our customer service team at inquiries@glasswarehouse.us and they will be happy to replace this for you. GWSalesSupport

                      Quality Product
                      Quality Hardware and Quality Glass. There is an animated installation video that is essentially the same as the printed intructions….installation was easy. I did buy a $45 “professional” suction cup online to help lift the door and hold it in place. I highly recommend it…..seems like it will outlast me.
